The parent function is f(x) = x^2, and k’s value is 4.

On a graph, sketch both y = f(x) and y = f(x +/= k) for y
our chosen parent function and chosen value of k. Be sure to clearly label each.

Answer in two SIMPLE and SHORT sentences.

1 answer

The graph of \( y = f(x) = x^2 \) is a standard parabola opening upwards. The graph of \( y = f(x - 4) = (x - 4)^2 \) is the same parabola shifted 4 units to the right.
